Job description

Overview

The New York Post provides readers with the best in News, Sports, Pop Culture and Entertainment – with signature wit, irreverence and authority averaging 90 million unique viewers a month. The Post has evolved into a multi-platform media company spanning print, digital, video, audio, app, television and commerce. The Los Angeles bureau is expanding, and we are seeking a versatile Tech Support Specialist to join our growing technology team. This role is critical to supporting our fast-paced newsroom, ensuring that journalists and staff can work seamlessly without disruption.

As a member of the technology team, you will provide hands-on IT support, troubleshoot issues quickly, and help introduce new tools and systems that enhance productivity. Your expertise and adaptability will play a key role in keeping our operations running smoothly and enabling the success of The California Post.

Responsibilities

  • Diagnose and resolve hardware, software, and network issues across computers, peripherals, and newsroom systems.
  • Manage user accounts, maintain network infrastructure, ensure system updates and backups, and support cloud services when needed.
  • Implement and monitor cybersecurity measures, including strong password policies, antivirus protection, and data encryption to safeguard sensitive newsroom information.
  • Set up new hardware, install and configure software, and confirm proper functionality.
  • Support the rollout of new technologies—such as AI, VR, and automation tools—to enhance news gathering, production, and distribution.
  • Effectively manage multiple support requests, prioritize competing needs, and oversee system upgrades or new technology implementations as required.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or related field preferred, or equivalent experience.
  • 2–3 years in technical support or help desk roles.
  • Strong knowledge of operating systems (macOS, Windows, Linux), business software (Google Suite), and newsroom tools (CMS, video editing software).
  • Familiarity with networking fundamentals, security protocols, and ticketing systems.
  • Ability to quickly identify and resolve IT issues under pressure and tight deadlines in a fast-paced newsroom environment.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical staff.
  • Highly organized, able to prioritize multiple support requests, and comfortable managing new system rollouts or upgrades.
  • Demonstrated adaptability and willingness to stay current with emerging technologies.
  • Commitment to continuous learning and applying creative, cost-effective solutions in environments with limited resources.
  • Additional Considerations

  • Rapid Growth & Scaling : Systems must be adaptable to support the newsroom's evolving needs as the Los Angeles bureau expands.
  • Cybersecurity Risks : Protecting sensitive journalistic data and maintaining a secure network is paramount.
  • Fast-Paced Environment : Immediate response to IT issues is essential to avoid disruptions to news production and delivery.
  • Keeping Up With Technology : Ongoing training and awareness are required to ensure the newsroom stays ahead of technological shifts.
  • Note : This role will be expected to report on-site.

    Pay Range : $72,000 – $76,000
